Dear Family, I delivered mail to 41 Lefke Lane over 20years. Jim / Gloria were very dear to me. They just happened to be two of the nicest people on planet earth. Needless to say you were blessed to have them as your parents. It was a joy knowing them. Be always blessed.

I was saddened to hear this news of the passing of my cousin. Although I have not seen her in quite some time due to distance, I remember her as always loving to laugh and have a great time at all of our gatherings. She will be sorely missed by all that knew her. My sincere sympathies to her family.

So sorry. I really did enjoy talking with her when I stopped by to see Aunt Mary. Hugs all around.
